I lost my strawberry plants. I planted them in a large container. They got rust. I have never had such a problem with rust before. I'm in the process of trying to save my blueberry Bushes. Thank you 😊🌹 Blessings to you and your family 💕🙏🤗
@@TheRipeTomatoFarms its a super simple recipe. I will email it to you Jeff. It's a fantastic alternative to jam. I found on pinterest but yes have tested it out & awesome. 😉
Jeff, thank you for all your time and work making these fabulous videos. What kind of strawberries are those, never seen a red blooming one. My 2nd year strawberries did not produce again. 😒 It's crazy hot in north Texas.
@@TheRipeTomatoFarms Your welcome, happy to hear your from the island too, i live in Qualicum Beach👊🏼 This rain is suppose to be gone by friday, they are calling for sun from july 9-18 atleast😁 can hardly wait, hoping we get a sunny september and not get nailed with rain til mid October🤞
@@TheRipeTomatoFarms Nice yea its a cool town, and i hear ya, i just got a late start to my Canna ladies and im super picky on over watering but other than that, im happy for the rain as well👊🏼
Hi Jeff ! I'm in Philadelphia and I have some strange seedlings popping up in my garden. The first two leaves resemble a brassica seedling but then it goes straight up with every leaf looking like an olive leaf. Any idea what it might be ? 🤔 I'm stumped. I'm letting a couple grow to see what they turn into.
I sometimes buy hanging strawberry plants which come in basket holding a group of strawberries to make it look better. Would it be best to separate them in the spring into their own individual pots?
I have an old bed of strawberries that I heavily mulch in the fall to let just hopefully the strongest ones to come up in the spring. It’s probably 12 years old now. Once a plant stops producing and stops making runners can it come back into production by digging up and making sure it’s just one plant and not on a runner? Or do they simply have a lifespan?
Hi Michelle, I divide the older plants around year 5 and the living crown sections seem to keep going just fine. Its actually the easiest way to propagate the plant! 🙂
@@TheRipeTomatoFarms ok. I figure it probably should but you mentioned in the video that they produce about 5 years so I didn’t know if that was just if not moving.
@@michelleprull4105 its the general rule for sure, but you also have to keep going with what's working! And if you're at a happy stasis, keep that train rolling! :-)
@@TheRipeTomatoFarms well unfortunately I am not. This year just little a few strawberries from that bed. I was going to try digging and separating but honestly most of them look like single plants.
We use to plant the seeds and harvest them the same year. Is there a difference in the beet seed variety or can all beets be harvested the second year?
Hi Theresa, no, its the opposite. You did it right. Beet seeds are planted and the bulbous roots are harvested in the SAME year. Being a biennial, the beets will then go ahead and flower the next year. Sometimes beets and other biennials will "bolt" due to environmental influence, in which case you can also get seeds in the same calendar year.
My zucchinis keep rotting even before they flower. this happens to all my zucchini plants and because of that, i only got a few zucchinis. What do i do? Could this be a watering issue?
We didnt any strawberries at all this year - dud harvest. Sigh. We've had the same plants for the last 4 years, time for new I suspect? Even the suckers from last year or two produced nothing.

Oh no, sorry to hear that Terry! Did you toss all the soil away?

Thanks Michele, I was hoping people would like them.....right to the info, not all that other fluff. Thanks! 🙂
I just made strawberry honey butter. Of course my plants not enough for anything but fresh eating, but my local farmers had plenty! Great series Jeff.
Strawberry honey butter? Whaaaaat? We need more details Kittie, LOL!

@@vanislandbeauty4926 yeah, once you master NOT over watering, that's 90% of gardening, lol!
I transplant and divide strawberries every 3 years to keep them growing and spreading strong
Yeah, a lot of commercial growers are on the same schedule. Smart.
I relocated five strawberry plants, 6 weeks before hibernation I will find out this spring if I was successful whoo 😅

Very interesting Robert! Almost sounds like a Brussels Sprout!
@@TheRipeTomatoFarms that's just what the very first two leaves look like. Then it gets confusing.
Those are some Ripe Tomatoes 🤙
Soon enough! 🙂

I have some wild strawberries next to the pot with my other strawberries 🍓
Ya I feed a lot of squirrels who ate right through my plastic fence so galvanized it is for next year.
Through the plastic!? Determined little buggers!
@@TheRipeTomatoFarms Who would think that squirrels love strawberries that much

It normally is a watering issue... That or temperature.... Those are the two biggies
Both!

Centipedes freak me out.
Ha ha, like something out of an alien horror movie!
Uncle, can you make a cannabis video?
